our lead developer Juan Linietsky moved on to developing the upcoming Vulkan renderer for Godot 4.0 which will bring a new Vulkan-based rendering backend in lieu of the current OpenGL ES 3.0 / OpenGL 3.3 The curious among you may read Juan's progress reports for details on this new architecture and rendering features implemented for 4.0

2D batching for the GLES2 renderer , thanks to lawnjelly and Clay ( clayjohn ). The new 2D batching is only implemented for the GLES2 renderer, so if you use GLES3 you will not be able to benefit from it in this build. Note that currently, only rects are batched (TileMaps, draw_rect , text rendering, etc.), stable build.

Although the role is highly creative, it is also quite technical, and modelers must be able to determine scale, optimize geometry and renders, and troubleshoot software issues and bugs. These equations are then combined and rendered using a graphics processing unit that outputs a rough but legible animated scene known as a 'playblast.'

Additionally, many languages require advanced font shaping features to handle diacritics and letter combinations, which are often fundamental for any accurate rendering of these languages (see e.g. Is this Arabic?
